I said to myself...

I should do something today besides knit.
And then I laughed and laughed.

HOLY COW! 6 Boxes of Malabrigo Just In! +more!

New malabrigo- Worsted, Rasta, Rios, Sock and Lace!  WOW.

Here are 2 new yarns we just got in!!  Can you believe the colors?

1st- Frolicking Feet- sock yarn- duh! cost $19.8 for 480 yards!

sorry about the picture- we are selling this yarn right out of the box!!

2nd-Wrap it up- Rayon/Bamboo mix- 300 yds for $15.oo

I think this will be great for the Market bag that we have in the store.  It will only take 1 sk!  The photo does not do the colors justice!  The colors of the yarn are really bright and clear!  Come in and check it out.

Overnight next Sat, Aug 13.  Fun starts at 7:30.  Bring a small snack to share and $20.  We will order pizza from South of Chicago pizza.  It is really good and it is new to the neighborhood!

If you have not been in the shop in the last 2 weeks, you do not know about my new obsession!  I am a Crazy Cranker!  I am using the new I-Cord maker that we sell in the shop.  Here are 2 examples of what I am doing- blue and white-COLTS, and blue and orange-BEARS (for stitches) !  These will be great in any school colors!  These Crankers are a huge hit and make the cutest scarves in around 2 hours! 

Have a great weekend-Susan

Don’t Miss

Open Knitting is tom. (thurs) from 5-8 pm.  Please join us for some fun knitting as silly stories!  We will have a drawing for a small door prize for those who attend!

Hey you GUYS. Yes I mean GUYS!  We are thinking again about starting a Men’s Knitting Group!  Are you interested?  We are thinking of meeting the 1st or 3rd thurs of the month from 5-8pm.  What do you think?  Call the shop and talk to Susan and let me know your opinion.  We are thinking once a month to start, and if their is enough interest we can do twice a month.  There would be no fee, just time to get together with the GUYS!

BUS, BUS, BUS- get your check into the shop for the bus to stitches!  It will be here before you know it.

New Class schedule for the fall should be up in a couple of days.

Are you sitting down?  Okay we are hoping to launch the new mass ave website in about a month.  For all of you out of towners (and in towners), you will be able to purchase online!  How exciting is this!!  I am VERY EXCITED!

Have a great day and hope to see you tom. night!  Susan
